Soft Neutral Shades Media Cabinet

Fresh Start for a Veneer Classic This manufactured media cabinet—with its once orange-tinged wood veneer—has been completely refreshed in a soft, neutral taupe called   French Villa . Inside the glass-front doors, the adjustable shelf pops in   Truffle , a beautifully rich and earthy shade from a newly released palette. The warm, complementary colors work together to give this piece a stylish, modern update and a brand new lease on life.

New Faux Tin Tile Pattern and Color Series



Another collection of faux tin tiles in the making. Did you see the previous set in dark shades of grey?


This collection is going to be lighter shades. The dark grey embossing paste was the same though but it is a new tile pattern stencil.


I love the more swirly look of this stencil.  The first full coverage color is Cece Caldwell paint's parchment. See it on a cute corner cabinet here.


Layers of color went on next including House & Canvas angora white, Fusion Mineral Paint's little lamb and FAT paint in robin's egg blue added to two of the 3. (above right)

After all layers dried,  Daddy Vans orange scented clear wax was brushed on to seal all the layers.


A silver glaze was brushed over once the wax dried


Then to make the raised embossing pop, Daddy Vans cafe noir wax (shadow black was added to the grey tile) was brushed on to give detail and dimension.


And here is the latest tiles available on my Etsy page
